Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge\underline\bold {Answer:}$

(Man + boy)'s one days' work = 1/24

(Man + boy)'s 20 days' work = 20/24

= 5/6

Remaning 1/6 of the work is done by the man alone can do 1/30 of the work in 1 day.

Therefore Boy's one days' work

= 1/24 – 1/30

= 1/120

Therefore Boy would take 120 days to complete the work.
